Ever since 1993, KBB Kollektorbau GmbH has been developing and delivering the most important components used in thermal solar systems: collectors, full-surface absorbers and installation accessories.
Our company is well known in the heating market as a reliable, independent original equipment manufacturer. We deliver exclusively to OEM partners, i.e. industrial clients and retail houses that sell thermal solar technology under their own name. As a consequence, KBB is not represented with its own brand on the market.
